Researchers have developed a depth-aware rover system that utilizes edge AI and monocular vision for navigation. The study compared simulated stereo vision with real-world monocular depth estimation, finding the latter to be more practical. The rover achieved 0.1 FPS for depth estimation and 10 FPS for object detection using a Raspberry Pi 4. AI
